You have tried to diet and exercise but you are not reaping any healthier results. You felt like a failure after putting all these efforts to lose weight. You think it’s your fault.

Just before I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism I was really gaining a lot of weight. My eldest daughter was wondering “why is my mom getting so fat when she doesn’t eat a lot and we don’t have fatty foods at home.” If you have an underactive thyroid, I believe you can relate to this situation.

2. Temperature Test

taking your temperature first thing before getting out of the bed for 7 days in a row

If the result is 98 °F, suspect low thyroid.

NOTE:

Digital thermometers vary considerably in quality and accuracy. When using a digital thermometer, be sure to hold it under your tongue for a minimum of two to three minutes before taking the reading for best accuracy.

Mercury thermometers tend to be far more reliable and accurate. Shake the thermometer first before using to bring the mercury back down so that you can get an accurate reading.

3. Eyebrows Test

Thinning hair on the outer eyebrows is a classic red flag of hypothyroidism.

Dr. Oz advises to do this one last test:

Line up a pencil vertically with the outer corner of one eye. If few or no hairs are visible beyond the pencil, you may have underactive thyroid.

4. Steam the Cruciferous Veggies

The vegetables above are Dr. Oz-approved detox foods. These foods contain compounds called indoles. Indoles boost the function of the liver to filter the toxins.

Cruciferous Facts:

These veggies also contain goitrogens.

Goitrogens are natural compounds that block thyroid peroxidase.

Thyroid peroxidase is an enzyme that is essential for thyroid-hormone formation.

To get the benefits of the cruciferous vegetables, you need to steam them for 3 to 5 minutes. Dr. Oz has explained — heat from steam causes goitrogens to lose their ability to block thyroid peroxidase.

5. Cooking with Slimming Oils

Coconut oil benefits:

boosts thyroid function

help increase metabolism and energy

Other thyroid gland-friendly oils:

Olive oil

Safflower oil

These oils supply vitamin E which assists in making active thyroid hormone. You may use these oils to substitute for other vegetable oils that you are using.1
